The SS CorregidorModel and render: Kathryna Alejandro
Today marks the 83rd anniversary of the sinking of the SS Corregidor. In the early hours of December 17, 1941, the SS Corregidor struck a mine as it navigated its way out of Manila Bay’s minefields. The ship, overloaded with people trying to leave Manila for the provinces at the start of World War 2 in the Philippines, sank with great loss of life.
Through researching available materials, Kathryna Alejandro of Renacimiento has recreated the SS Corregidor. In commemoration of the disaster's anniversary, we are posting the 3D model here. Additionally, Kathryna Alejandro has also recreated the sinking of the SS Corregidor, which will be posted later as the second part of this special series.
